S.O.S. SAMPHIRE O STODMARSH.

Managed at last to get a half decent shot of one of the black redstarts at the Hoe yesterday,it was one of the youngsters but its quite an achievement to get close to these wary critters.It was a superb day yesterday just like high summer weatherwise and good numbers of birds too,nothing out of the ordinary but a good mix of species.

BLACK REDSTART

BLACK REDSTART one of half a dozen youngsters successfully readred at the Hoe this year.

STONECHAT a few more in evidence as autumn approaches.
HARBOUR PORPOISE DECEASED ON ABBOTSCLIFF BEACH,THE GREAT BLACK BACK GULLS WERE THE WOULD BE BRAIN SURGEONS On that happy note we leave Samphire Hoe and head for Stodmarsh on a warm misty Wednesday morning
BEARDED REEDLING or to give it its popular name BEARDED TIT, there were good numbers roaming the reed beds today and the largest flock of some twenty odd birds came to me while I was photographing a spiders web,I became aware of a clamour behind me and they posed nicely for a few minutes.

This must be a young female as it has no beard but it certainly appears to have the second half of the equation!!!!!
